Specific questions ??? - Can anyone add any more individuals?

Or Wilsons son James in America after ~1880? Hope this makes a connection for someone. Regards Alan Anderton, Bargo NSW Australia

I would say that we must assume he was born between 1814 - 18 although I would lean towards the ages given in earlier sources: 1816 - 18 Continued on next posting Alan Anderton, Bargo NSW Australia

Friends My primary focus is Wilson Cornwall of Victoria, but he is proving very hard to find prior to his transportation so I have widened the focus to include his known relatives in Australia in the hope that a lead from one of them will provide the crack we need to break down that brick wall! Firstly this is what we know about Wilson prior to his marriage ... Wilson Cornwall, the Convict records Police and trial documents 14/03/1839 Alexander Mitchell of Bally[magingan], [Artria] parish Barony of Loughanshollin robbed by three men near Castledawson who escaped towards Londonderry through the Town Bridge turnpike 16/03/1839 Wilson Cornwall & Moses Hutchinson apprehended for the crime in Belfast 21/03/1839 Tried for Highway Robbery, Aged 21 (therefore b.22/03/1817-21/03/1818) No previous offences, sentenced to 15 years Transportation Transportation records 06/07/1839 Departed Dublin Town on board the MIDDLESEX 25/01/1840 Arrived Port Jackson, Sydney, NSW; Aged 23 (therefore b.26/01/1816-25/01/1817); Single, no children, R[ead and W[rite]; Religion Protestant; Native Place Co Armagh; Occupation Labourer; Cousin John Cornwall, transported 3y ago; Convict Indent No 160; Convict standing No 40-172 "Folio 10" [Indent No] Described as 5'8 1/2"; Fair ruddy & freckled complexion; Light sandy hair; Grey eyes; Large semicircular scar on the top of head; breast & arms hairy and freckled; two scars inside third finger of left hand Ticket of Leave 13/11/1845 Ticket of Leave recommended by Goulburn Bench 07/03/1846 Ticket of Leave 46/428 granted "Allowed to remain in the service of Thos.

I have been doing research into families in the Donaghadee and Comber areas and find a large number of Huddlestons?Hiddlestons there. I am wondering if you know for certain that your ancestor was born in Belfast because often emigrants in the 18th. C when asked where they came from gave the name of the port of embarcation rather than the exact area of birth. In the Townland of Monlough in the Parish of Comber records from the mid 19th. C. list the following farmers: Huddleson Samuel John James Robert The Copy of Registries in the Barony of Ards 1813-1821 lists John Huddleston in Donaghadee. In 1886 we also find John Huddleston listed in Monlough, Moneyreagh. The graveyard of the Monyreagh Non-Subscribing Presbyterian Church lists the following gravestone inscriptions: Hiddleston/Huddleson Here lieth the body of Robert Hiddleson of Monlaugh who died 17th. August 1799 aged 74 years. Here lieth the body of Mary Hiddleson alias M...on, wife to Robert Hiddleson who died 12th. March 1795 ahed 62 years. Here lieth the body of John Hiddleson, son of Robert, who died March 1779 aged 22 years. Here lieth the body of Hannah Hiddleson alias Alexander who died 2nd. June ... aged 54 years ...duteous wife, a kind parent ...James Huddleson of Monlough ...the memory of his wife. Huddleston Erected in memory of John Huddleston who died 30th. Nov. 1860 aged 72 years. Also his son David P. Huddleston who died 24 th. Feb. 1868 aged 33 years. Also his wife Elizabeth who died 4th. Feb. 1881 aged 72 years. Also his son Robert who died 16th. Oct. 1896 aged 66 years. And his wife Mary Frame who died 20th. Sept. 1918 aged 75 years. Also their daughter Mary who died 6th. August 1921 aged 41 years. Also their daughter Alice Jane who died 8th. Jan. 1923 aged 78 years. Griffith's Valuations for the Parish of Moneyreagh lists the following: Anne Huddleston - land. Lessor John Magill " " - House and land William Huddleston - House, offices and land. Lessor,Hill Trevor Robert Huddleston - House offices and land John Huddleston - House and land James Huddleston - House and land Moneyreagh Non-Subsc. Presb. Church Montgomery Here lies the body of Grisel Montgomery who died 14th. April 1803 aged 34 years. Also her children, William and John. The name Montgomery is common all over the Ards. The 1843 Directory for Belfast does not list anyone of the name of either Huddleston or Hiddleston though directories are not always all inclusive. The Huddlestons were among the early settlers in the Ards, coming over with Hugh Montgomery about 1710. At that time they were listed in the Townland of Moneyreagh and the name was spelled "Huddlestone". Nowhere else in Ulster have I seen such a concentration of Huddlestons. I thought this might be of interest to you. Robert Alexander Huddleston - House, offices and land.

As directories don't usually list everyone in a district likely Parish lists, Griffith's Valuation, Tithe Aplotments and gravestone inscriptions would be worth consulting at a nearby LDS library. A Jeremyah Lowery was a grocer in the town of Newry but may not be directly related. The name Lowry also occurs in nearby Newcastle - John Lowry and Robert Lowry listed at Newcastle.

My Great Grandmother Mary Gilbride at the age of 43 along with her children John age 16, Andrew age 14, Bridget (my Grandmother) age 12, Annie age 10, and Peter age 7 came to the USA on April 15, 1908. Their port of departure was Londonderry, Ulster, Ireland. They came over on the ship Furnessia. Another daughter came over before them. Their ship manifest said they resided in Swanlinbar which is in County Cavan, Ireland. It also said that my Grandmother was born in Fermanagh, Ireland. I am trying to find out which townland they lived in and what happened to my Great Grandfather . I think but am not positive( and would like to find out for sure) that his name was Andrew Gilbride as an Aunt found my Grandmother's marriage certificate and it said that was her Father's name. I have also been told Mary Gilbride's maiden name was also Gilbride and would like to find out if her name was indeed Gilbride too. If anyone has any info on the family or any other Gilbride's who may be related please write !! Thank you !!!

Thanks Duncan for those references. I will check them. Jessie

Ella, perhaps you can help me with a question concerning Belfast history: There is a family legend in the Law family in America that David William Law , his wife and four sons , William, Thomas, Frank and John were forced to flee Belfast in 1794 because of persecution by the Catholics. Was there persecution of Protestants BY Catholics in Belfast at that time? I always thought it was the other way round. Where can I find info on Belfast history for that period? Thanks for your assistance. Jessie, California

Hello Don Kelly and listers, I have been reading through your e-mail replies to other listers and saw you mentioned Bassett's Directory for Down. Does that directory cover Belfast during the 1940's - 1950's? I would like to know who was living at Chamberlain Street (I think the number was 15) between 1942 and 1958. The family name was NUGENT and may have had a name-change after 1953. If any other listers can accommodate, I would be pleased to receive what you can find. Hope to hear from someone real soon. Joan. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp
